Chapter 27 Purchasing Spree (1)
Li Ziyu was carrying more than 100 taels of silver in her arms, and her heart was really beautiful.
In this Daye Dynasty, she is helpless, and she has no skills to make a living, even now that she has silver taels, she doesn't dare to spend lavishly. These silver taels, to put it bluntly, are luck. She only has the strength to rely on, but she can't always rely on strength to eat. Not to mention the dangers in the forest, there are no wild things waiting for you to fight. She had thought of carving a way out with modern weaving techniques, but she didn't expect that there was no thatch needed for weaving. She had only found a small part near the swamp, but it was too dangerous. For that small part of thatch to touch dangerously, it is not worth it. In fact, the best weaving handicraft is corn husks, but she hasn't found any corn planted here, hasn't corn been brought here?
There are too many things in the family now, and there is also an injured person, who needs to be nourished. Thinking about the things that needed to be bought, Li Ziyu felt that she couldn't keep the money in her hand, it was really a toothache. No matter how toothache you have, you have to buy it, and some of them really need to be added.
Li Ziyu made up her mind no longer to wronged herself and her younger siblings, she didn't have any conditions before, but now that she has the silver in her hand and saves, Li Ziyu feels that she can't help herself. Let's spend it first, and then we'll talk about it when we run out of money.
Li Ziyu walked towards the west lane, thinking about what to buy first and then what to buy, so he first walked towards the grocery store in his hometown. She had to buy salt first, and the deerskin at home was still waiting.
In the grocery store in my hometown, only the little guy Xiao Hei is inside. He was talking to an old man who bought a bamboo basket about the price.
"Uncle, it's really not expensive, the bamboo baskets we have here are all sold from the south, and we can't make a lot of money. If you don't believe it, you can ask, other shops must be more expensive than ours. ”
The old man was a little hesitant, he did go a few times, and it was really cheaper, and it was also cheaper. In the end, the old man trembled and took out thirteen coins from his arms and took away a bamboo basket.
Li Ziyu waited patiently to the side, and only stepped forward when she saw that Xiao Hei was fine.
Xiao Hei was very happy to see Li Ziyu and obviously recognized her.
can let the shopkeeper spend two hundred taels of silver to buy a recipe for cooked skin, and this person Xiao Hei will not forget. The shopkeeper cooked the skin several times according to the recipe, and the cooked skin was much softer than before. The shopkeeper has now sent the recipe of cooked leather back to his hometown, and the master will definitely be very happy. In fact, the shopkeeper at that time dared to pay just with this one prescription, and Xiao Hei was not worried. What if one party doesn't do anything? Isn't the two hundred taels of silver spent in vain? But when I thought about the shopkeeper's ability, thanks to Fang Zi's management, otherwise, Li Ziyu would have cried.
"Little sister, it's you, what to buy?" Xiao Hei greeted him very warmly and asked Li Ziyu.
Li Ziyu also greeted with a smile: "Brother Xiaohei, you're here, what about the shopkeeper?" ”
"The shopkeeper's purchase has gone." The shopkeeper's explanation, if someone looked for him when he was not there, he said that he went to buy goods, so Xiao Hei replied like this.
Li Ziyu nodded and entered the grocery store. In fact, she just asked, the shopkeeper's absence did not affect her shopping, so she didn't care where the shopkeeper went.
Next, Li Ziyu pointed to Xiao Hei to take the things on the shelf.
Fifteen catties of fine salt (I didn't expect there to be fine salt here), a coarse porcelain jar of vinegar and soy sauce (the coarse porcelain jar is sealed with wax), a package of large ingredients, a bag of Sichuan pepper, and a large piece of straw paper bought a large roll (every time I went to the toilet, I used a sorghum stalk to split it in half to wipe my buttocks, which made Li Ziyu unbearable), and finally Li Ziyu found a dagger with a sleeve when she was wandering around, and it didn't matter whether it was expensive or not, it was also counted in it.
Xiao Hei Ma began to report: "Fifteen catties of salt and twenty wen and one catty of three hundred wen, vinegar eight wen, soy sauce eight wen, big material thirty wen, pepper thirty wen, straw paper twenty wen, dagger ten taels of silver, a total of ten two three hundred and ninety-six wen, leave you six wen, count ten two three hundred and ninety wen." ”
Li Ziyu smacked her tongue when she listened, this money is easy to earn, and it is easier to spend. Especially that dagger, it's simply too expensive. Obediently paid the bill. Put the salt under the bamboo basket, then put the straw rope, soy sauce, vinegar, peppercorns, and daggers on top in turn, and finally tie it tightly with hemp rope.
Li Ziyu said goodbye to Xiao Hei and went to the people's grain store along the street. She also wanted to go to the market to buy food, but she didn't want to go again after the last time she went. The main thing is that the food is not complete, not to mention, and she has to buy a few people, and one person can't satisfy her purchasing power at all. And it's not cheaper, it's too troublesome.
There were only a few people in the people's grain store, and the two young men were later called the fat one called the sea, and the slightly thinner one was called Xiaolin. When Li Ziyu entered, both of them were very busy, so Li Ziyu went to check what she was going to buy today.
The grain varieties in the grain store are quite complete, all kinds of miscellaneous grains and fine grains, but there is no corn that Li Ziyu needs. Li Ziyu did not give up, and continued to rummage through the horns, but did not find corn, but found soybeans. Soybeans have long been available here, but for Li Ziyu's family, soybeans are a luxury that they can't afford. In fact, soybeans are not expensive, but Li Ziyu's family used to be too poor, and the sorghum was not full, where can I afford to eat soybeans?
Li Ziyu was feeling the truth, and the sea came over after he was busy: "Little girl, what do you buy today?" ”
"Bring me 50 catties of white flour, 50 catties of rice, 20 catties of millet, 20 catties of sorghum flour, and 20 catties of sorghum rice." Li Ziyu reported it in one breath, the reason why she bought so many coarse and fine grains was mainly because she wanted to eat coarse and fine grains. Not only can she not afford to eat fine grains, but she mainly eats them with coarse grains, and her nutrition is also balanced. I bought a lot of coarse grains last time, but this time I bought less, anyway, there are many people, and I am not afraid that I will not be able to eat them.
"Oops! I'm going to weigh you out, oh, by the way, do you have pockets? The sea, who was about to weigh the grain, suddenly stopped and turned to ask. He remembered that the last time he bought grain, he used the pocket of the grain store, and of course he calculated the money, so this time he asked first.
"No, let's use yours, by the way, weigh me another twenty catties of soybeans, and calculate how much it is." Li Ziyu felt embarrassed when she thought about it, and she forgot to take her pocket every time she bought food, of course, it was also related to the fact that there was no surplus food pocket at home. This is also a habit that has been formed in modern times. In modern times, Li Ziyu lived to eat in the army for more than 20 years, and never bought food. When I came here, in the memory of the original owner, I always bought a few catties of food, just a piece of cloth pocket, where did I buy food seriously?
Dahai and Xiao Lin, who was done, helped Li Ziyu weigh all kinds of grains, and also quoted the prices of various grains:
"Fifty catties of white flour, 12 wen and 600 wen, 50 catties of rice, 15 wen and 750 wen, sorghum flour 20 catties and 6 wen and 120 wen, sorghum rice 20 catties and 8 wen and 160 wen, millet 20 catties and 10 wen and 1 catty 200 wen, soybeans 20 catties and 3 wen and 1 catty 60 wen" Then there was a crackling abacus, and the total number was reported: "A total of 1,890 Wen, plus six pockets of 18 Wen, a total of 1,908 Wen." If the little girl buys a lot, she doesn't want eight wen, you just give 1,900 wen. ”
Li Ziyu paid the silver very calmly. He took out the axe from the bamboo basket and put in the basket several kinds of grain except rice and white flour. Rice and white flour pockets were stacked flat on top of each other, tied with hemp rope to form a cross, and tied at the top of the cross. I saw her effortlessly carrying the bamboo basket, holding the axe in her left hand, and grabbing the grain bag tied into a cross with her right hand, and went out of the door of the grain store as if nothing had happened. She didn't put her rice and white flour in the bamboo basket because she had to buy cloth and cotton, and she had to make space. The bamboo basket she carried on her back could hold more than 200 catties of things, and it was the largest bamboo basket. This is when Daddy was on the mountain, it can be seen that Daddy's strength is also very great.
At the door of the grain store, Dahai and Xiaolin were stunned and looked at the figure of Li Ziyu in the distance and were speechless. After a long time, they looked at each other and shook their heads incredibly, there is such a strong little girl in this world, it is really too fresh.
Li Ziyu originally didn't want to expose her strength so early, but she had to be Zhang Luo herself inside and outside the family, what could she do if she didn't expose it? The second and third brothers also want to bear the burden for her, and she also wants to train them, but what about the family? The three little ones are still so small, there must always be one person left in the family. It's the one who stays, it's also a seven-year-old or nine-year-old, what can they do? It's just a matter of letting them watch the three little ones at home. But then again, what role can they play in something that really happens? Alas, if it is exposed, it will be exposed, so as to save the painstaking round lie in the future.
Li Ziyu walked towards Jixiang Buzhuang with a bamboo basket on his back, and the place where the most money was spent today should be in Jixiang Buzhuang.
Because she has to change all the family's cotton clothes into new ones, and she has to make two sets for each person. I also have to make two covers, and I have to change them. The upper is not a good cloth, or a cloth toe. Cotton also costs ten pounds. The old quilt waited for the patient to leave, and he made a kang quilt, and always slept on the tarpaulin, which did not feel very comfortable.
It seems that it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift, and she has now developed towards luxury. By the way, there are also the wounded and sick at home, he is still naked, can't he always be naked, right? I have to buy him some better fabrics, at first glance, he is not an ordinary child, it is too shabby and not like it. Alas, I don't know if I saved it right, I really didn't find a shackle to carry, I hope I am a sensible person, don't waste my efforts to save him.
When Li Ziyu walked into Jixiang Buzhuang, in Ziyun Zhai on the third floor of the Riri Red Restaurant, Ren Xiaohang was listening to Buyi talking about Li Ziyu's situation.
"My mother died in childbirth three years ago, and my father fell down the mountain two years ago and hit his head. The six of them all live on more than one acre of land in the yard, which is certainly not enough to eat, so Li Ziyu and one of their younger brothers went up the mountain to chop firewood and sell firewood to make a living. The house they live in once collapsed and was uninhabitable, and it was only recently renovated."
"Wait, where did they get the money to repair the house? Aren't they all hungry? Ren Xiaohang interrupted Buyi's words.
"This is what I find strange, saying that when I went up the mountain to cut wood, I caught a roe deer and sold it for a few taels of silver. But where is this roe deer so easy to fight, although it is called a stupid roe deer, it is also very clever, she is just a little girl, how can she hit it? ”
"What else?"
"There is also the fact that Li Ziyu suddenly has a lot of strength, just from saving the five people, he can explain everything. I went to the place where the man was attacked, and it won't be too easy for me to save people from that swamp."
"Suddenly my strength is great" Ren Xiaohang silently thought about various reasons in his heart, and fell into deep thought.
